What a wild wet weekend we just had! It started raining Friday evening and didn’t let up until Sunday afternoon. We had just enough time to enjoy the hottub for a bit before it started raining again. It was a relatively warm rain (40’s) and as the clouds lifted off the mountains I was shocked to still see snow up there.
Anyway, it was a great weekend to hunker down and work on Google map code. I needed a simple and fast map app to display places for my charging station location program and other upcoming projects. I started with a simple HTML5 structure without jQuery or jQuery Mobile and without any external JavaScript or CSS files. It’s just a stand-alone app that uses pure Google Map Services and I’m very pleased to say it scales great on my smartphone, tablet and my giant monitor.
I then wrote another version that plots directions between two places, just like Google Maps does. (we both use the same Google Services :-) Now I need to write one more app that accepts user addresses, to bind them together.
Here’s the Map app and here’s the Directions app.
You keep up the good work.
It works great on my phone. Great job :-)
